@gsu4life07@Linkseay I'm assuming you're smarter than this, but just in case you are this dumb, let me explain it. People promote fakes to make money. If there is a demand for something and someone can supply that demand and make money, then someone will do just that. Probably pretty difficult to understand.

@bluedragon Nike has room for growth. To know that you'd simply look at the past few years. And to say that it's the retro product keeping them there is pretty absurd. The whole point of this topic is to discuss KD's move to stay with Nike instead of signing with UA. Nike is where they are due to their intelligence and their understanding of the hundreds of markets that exist (you'll notice things are much different from Country to Country and even within those countries). They cater their brand better than their competition. The competition is always several moves behind. Nike has Lebron, KD, and Kobe. Part of the mystique of these athlete's is due to Nike. People like yourself seem to think it's as simple as the "retro" product. If it were that simple why would Nike care about KD in the first place? He's not selling "retro" product. He's selling newly designed sneakers that are meant to be worn on the court. Adidas and UA can make a solid product all day long, but their strategies are poor and they will remain far behind Nike until they figure things out or Nike messes up (doesn't look like either will be happening in the next few years).

@BigGuy77@curtdiggler1@Squizzy3000 they've released like 10 pairs of these in mids recently and NO ONE gives a shit whatsoever. People ONLY and we all know I'm 100% correct, ONLY want this shoe because it's limited. If it was not limited it would be on sale for $50 and no one would buy it.

@JahRemyKluminati@scaredmagic You need a reality check. When you say, "Your favorite rapper's favorite rapper was probably influenced by the work that Michael Jackson did," I realize you are a pathetic piece of shit. Sympathizing with a pedophile because he was an insanely talented artist would be the same as sympathizing with a pedophile because he was a defensive genius on the football field. This country has many loop holes for the mega rich and famous. In my opinion you need to seek mental help right away before you molest a little boy and come up with some excuse as to why it's acceptable. At least Jackson was murdered and Sandusky will rot in prison. Both deserved worse, but still better than having them freely molesting boys.

I wish the outsole was all black. Sad how the media portrays the world's most notorious pedophile in such positive light. They should release a navy and white pair along with these as a pack to honor sandusky and just name them "the nightmare pack."

@RyanCarvalho I love carmines, but these look to have better shape in every pic I see. For whatever reason the carmines came out with the ronald mcdonald look in the toe box and these just look much better.

I have to say I have been a big fan of Sneakernews for years now. Personally speaking, you are my go-to site for release dates, pictures, and news in general. I do bust your balls from time to time as I don't always agree with the path you choose in terms of "ads" and stuff like that, but I will say that this was one of my favorite reads ever. I love hearing the personal experiences of your staff and I think you should do more of it.
